AN INCID E N T.
BY REV. j. W. HANSON, d. D.
Glasgow, Scotlaud.)

An incident occurred in the early
part of my ministry, which impressed
me much at the time, and of which 1
have since frequently thought, when
the text connected with the event has
come up for consideration. In Dan
yers, Mass, 1 was first settled as pas
tor. The principal member of the
parish was Hon. Elias Putnam, father
of the distinguished Rev. DR.. A. p.
Putnam, so long of Brooklyn, N. Y.
His life was at the time wasting away
with consumption, and l had one day
called upon him, as was my frequent
custom, and was conversing with him
when the Congregational clergyman,
Rev. Mr.. Tolman, entered, apparently
for the purpose of shaking his faith in
the precious truth he had so long ac-
cepted, and which was giving him great
peace in the dying hour. The sick man
responded to few of the minister's
questions, and then, observing that his
strength did not permit much converse
tion, said that it would be pleasant
if his visitors would converse on the
theme, and that 1 might be regarded
as his proxy, and would, no doubt, say
substantially what he would.
After few mutual and kindly OBJ
servations Mr.. Tolman asked me what
one text would adduce if desired, in
support of what he was pleased to term
the fatal error on which our mutual
friend was relying. To his great sur
prise L replied: "These shall go away
into everlasting punishment" etc. Matt.
XIV. 46.
''But," said he, "that would be the
very text 1 should quote in condemna-
tion of your views"
"For the reason" said 1, ''that you
cannot have weighed the meaning of
the words employed"
81 do not see," said he, "what you
can find in those terrible words to sus.

EVOLUTION AND RELIGION.
BY REV. WILLIAM TUCKER, d. d.
Mount Gilead, o.

The doctrine of evolution as present
ed in the writings of Mr.. Darwin, and
expounded in the philosophy of Mr..
Spencer, is not demonstrated or verified
science. 1t does not explain all the facts
presented in the phenomena of nature,
life and mind /; nor has it ever been
verified by scientific experiment. This
has not, and cannot be done. No one
pretends that man comes into being
now by process of evolution from the
lower order OF animals. This is GER
tainly not the present method employed
by nature in the production of man. If
natures order is permanent, and her
methods uniform, as science teaches, it
follows that evolution was never the
natural method.
But evolution proceeds upon the as
sumption that the effect may be great
er than its producing cause, if it ex-
cludes God and evolves life, mind and
morals from matter, as Mr.. Haeckel
claims. This theory contradicts the
law of causation, which is an axiom of
science, and a necessary and universal
postulate of the reason. Philosophy

FOOLISH PROTESTANT PARENTS.

A Roman Catholic priest is reported
to have said in sermon, few days
ago, that "one-third of the number Of
students in the Catholic converts in
this country are of Protestant parent
age" Whether this is true or not, we
have no means of knowing; but that
many Protestants are reckless enough
to do this we do know, and in not few
such cases their daughters become Ro-
man Catholics.
A long and very interesting account
of the influences brought to bear upon
young lady of our acquaintance-in-
fluences most subtle, and all the more
dangerous because nothing offensive or
aggressive was done-was recently CIV
en- to us by her as she was on the way
for a visit to the institution from which
she had been graduated. We emay some
day print it.
Some of the Roman Catholic schools
are better than some Protestant schools;
but upon the average, Roman Catholic
schools are less thorough and practical
than those supported by Protestants;
and, except in few cases of unusual
strength of mind or positiyeness of con-
viction, they either produce an utter
indifference to religion or develop
strong tendency to Romanism.
Probably the priest greatly exagger-
ated the number; but it is large enough
to justify an earnest caution against
such folly.-Nese York Advocate.
The Universalist. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1884-1897, 1887-02-19

places it among the necessary laws of
thought, and regards it as an intuition.
This theory of evolution must be
given up, as it repudiates the funda-
mental basis of all philosophy and
science and disregards one of the nee
essary laws of thought. You cannot
employ logic to prove theory that re-
jects the fundamental axioms of all log
ical reasoning. This is what this the
ory of evolution practically does, and
is therefore placed beyond the range of
rational investigation. The theory of
theistic evolution holds that God is the
universal, self-existent, omnipresent,
omnipotent, intelligent and benefcent
cause of all things; while evolution is
only a divine method. 1t is the way
in which God works, the order which
he observed in bringing worlds, plants,
animals and man into existence. This
is theistic evolution, and lays down
foundation for morals and religion.
This theory holds to Gods existence
as Creator, Providence and Father;
and to mans relation to him as his
creature and child. Here we have the
origin of these relations out Of which
all morals and religion spring. We
can ground religious faith, hope, obli-
cation, and worship upon this theory
of evolution. 1t presents basis for
Christian character, life and experience,
for it recognizes God as the universal
Father.
If all religion is the out growth of
mans religious nature, and our relig-
ious faculties are the result of pro-
cess of evolution, then religion has
the same foundation in mans ma
ture as all other institutions. If the
doctrine Of evolution is true, reason,
conscience, the sense Of justice, benev-
olence, the social nature and the do
lnestic affections, as well as religion,
all resulted from the same process of
development.
Religious institutions, therefore, have
the same basis in mans nature and
wants as society, the family, the state;
law, government, science and art, are
the results of evolution, and so is relig
ion, according to this philosophy. This
being so, it follows if anything is true,
religion is true; if anything is divine,
religion is divine.
Evolution proves that Christianity
is the highest form of religion, because
it is the latest distinctive form. 1t is
the outcome, and therefore the better
perfected flower and matured fruit of
all previous religious life, growth and
effort. This Is true or the doctrine or
evolution is not true. It has grown
out of the nature of the highest and
noblest race of men and has been devel-
oped along with the highest civiliza-
tion.-PhTen0l0gic Journal.

AMERICAN PAUPERIsM AND AMERICAN
CHARITY.

No people are so tender, so generous,
SO lavish of active sympathy toward the
sick, the bereaved, and the unfortun-
ate. In States which, probably from
an instinct under their circumstances
just and wise, refuse to recognize the
right to subsistence by legal provi-
sion for the poor-whereby the idle and
vicious would chiefly benefit, never
theless paupers by the visitation of God,
the aged and infirm, the blind, the deaf
and dumb, lunatics and idiots, are am
ply provided for by public and pri-
vate charity, with all that can alleviate
their lot, or teach them, as far as pos
sible the means of self-dependence.
American charity toward the victims
of great natural catastrophe, far more
common there than here-communities
burned out by forest fire or ruined by
a flood, and yet more the personal sac
rifice made, the readiness with which
men and women devote their leisure,
thought and energy to the supervision
of their public institutions, the succor
and nursing of community stricken
by pestilence, the efficient distribution
Of public subscriptions, are above
praise. A careful study of transatlan-
tic examples might put our own boast
ed lavishness to shame British Quar-
terly Revie,o.

be provided, and when our church has
worked up to the full limit of its re-
sources, God will come in to give ad.

further duty.
Have we the menp Would any of
our preachers and workers be moved to
engage in the work of foreign missions
were the way opened and the means
provided for such work I? The writer
knows whereof he affirms when he
states that there is no doubt about our
having the men adapted to this work
and anxious to take hold of it. They
belong to class, active, strong, full of
faith and courage, who greatly love
their church and their faith, and whose
minds and hearts are fired with mis-
sionary zeal. They are all ready to 60
forth and bear the gospel message to
the heather, whenever the church will
send them. But how can we spare
these strong men? They are needed
at home there are calls for them in
many vacant parish, and in many a
promising field where believers wait
for the work of organization to be done.
All this is true, yet may it not be bet
ter that some of these devoted minis
ters should obey the call to the more
distant field? and may it not be an
ticipated that their going forth in so
heroic and self-sacrificing a way will
kindle the fires of a new faith and en-
thusiasm in the hearts of those that re-
main, so that there shall be a great
and blessed increase of the Universalist
ministry? AS it is seen how much there
is to do both at home and abroad, en-
gaging in foreign missions will not be
likely to weaken or lessen the working
force of our church.
Is Universalism adapted to mission
ary work in foreign lands ? Most GER
tainly it is if it represents vital Christ
ianity. We believe it to be the gospel
VI tAO Vi uCluCu dilu lioOu CdflUul, ctuu
hence it must be adapted to men of
every nation, cline and condition.
Christianity, as it would be presented
to the heathen by able and devout men
belonging to our church, would in moth
ing lose it's prestige or its power, but
in some respects certainly it would be
better adapted to reach the heart and
attract the soul to righteousness and
faith. Is it not well to make the test?
Is not the Universalist church about
ready to select some favorable field,
some locality in Japan, India, China or
elsewhere, where the doors of oppor-
tunity are open, and there establish,
with all available safe guards, encour-
agements and helps, its first distinctive
position in heather lands /? The best
way to test the practicability and use of
foreign missions is to engage in the
work and see what will come of it. 1t
is the men who believe in the move
ment with all their hearts who must
lead the advance and point the way to
victory.

1t is an encouraging sign that the
criticisms made by outsiders on spirit
manifestations" and on the methods Of
many mediums" begin to appear in
Spiritualist journals. While it is true
that house divided against itself cannot
stand, it is also true that a house united
in upholding impostures and sbsurdities
will make sure it's own downfall. There
must be enough of the critical spirit in
any church or party to detect and expose
it's most glaring mistakes or its corruption
is certain. We note, therefore, with sat
isfaction the space given up in the Religio
Philosophical Journal TO the exposure of

Dean Kitchen, of Hampshire, thinks
he has found the original staple and iron
ring of the legend of st. Swithin, one of
England's most popular saints. When
the dead saint thought it high time that
his bones should be transferred to the
new Church of st. Ethelwold, he visited
in sleep on three occasions a certain
blacksmith. Finally the latter went to
his tomb, and laying hold of an iron ring
fastened to the stone lid, prayed if his
dream meant anything the ring should
yield. He pulled, and the ring came out
easily. Others who tried to initiate him
failed, the ring declining to SO much as
bulge. The dean thinks that an iron
ring and staple found where the saint
was first INFERRED must be the miracu-
lous object.
